Lakeland Bancorp Reports Third Quarter Results and Increases Cash Dividend
OAK RIDGE, N.J., Oct. 14, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lakeland Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq:LBAI) reported the following developments in the third quarter of 2010:
- Net Income in the third quarter of 2010 totaled $4.9 million, which compared to $2.0 million for the same period last year. Net Income Available to Common Shareholders was $3.3 million or $0.14 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2010, as compared to $1.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share reported in the third quarter of 2009.
- As previously reported, the Company repaid $20.0 million of the previously outstanding $59.0 million in preferred stock to the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program in the third quarter of 2010. This repayment will result in annualized savings of $1.2 million due to the elimination of the associated preferred dividends and related discount accretion. A non-cash charge of $898,000 was recorded in the third quarter of 2010, reflecting the acceleration of the preferred stock discount accretion related to the preferred stock repaid. This charge had an impact of ($0.04) per diluted share in the third quarter 2010 results.
- The Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per common share, an increase of $0.01 per common share from the previous quarter. The cash dividend will be paid on November 15, 2010 to holders of record as of the close of business on October 29, 2010. The Company also declared a dividend of 5% for the quarterly dividend payment due November 15, 2010 for the remaining preferred stock issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program.
- In the third quarter of 2010, net interest margin at 3.93% was 31 basis points higher than 3.62% reported in the same period last year. This improvement in net interest margin from the same period last year was a result of a 9% increase in net interest income, which resulted primarily from a 37% decrease in interest expense.
- Noninterest bearing demand deposits at $379.6 million increased by $21.6 million or 6% from June 30, 2010 and by $56.5 million, or 17%, from year-end 2009. Core deposits represented 80% of total deposits at September 30, 2010 as compared to 78% at year-end 2009.
- The efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP measure, was 56.4% in the third quarter of 2010 as compared to 62.1% for the same period last year.
Net Income for the first nine months of 2010 was $14.2 million, compared to a Net Loss of ($7.5) million for the same period last year. Net Income Available to Common Shareholders for the first nine months of 2010 was $10.8 million or $0.45 per diluted share, as compared to a loss of ($9.8) million or ($0.42) per diluted share for the first nine months of 2009.
Thomas J. Shara, Lakeland Bancorp's President and CEO said, "We are pleased to report a significant increase in Net Income this quarter as compared to the third quarter last year, which was driven by an improved net interest margin and controlled management of expenses. In recognition of the strong results this year, we are pleased to reward our loyal shareholders with an increase in the quarterly cash dividend. Additionally, we are very excited to introduce a new brand identity for Lakeland Bank. This new "look", which will appear in all of our marketing communications, enhances our community banking model, which offers individualized service to both retail and commercial customers alike."

EXPLANATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Reported amounts are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company's management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information, which consists of measurements and ratios based on tangible equity and tangible assets, is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company's financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies.
The Company also uses an efficiency ratio that is a non-GAAP financial measure. The ratio that the Company uses excludes amortization of core deposit intangibles, expenses on other real estate owned and other repossessed assets and, where applicable, long-term debt prepayment fees. Income for the non-GAAP ratio is increased by the favorable effect of tax-exempt income and excludes securities gains and losses, which can vary from period to period. The Company uses this ratio because it believes the ratio provides a better comparison of period to period operating performance.
